Former Burton Albion midfielder Jamie Allen could make his Coventry City debut against the Brewers this weekend.

Allen left Albion to join the Sky Blues for an undisclosed fee in June, but a deep hip muscle strain has kept him out of action so far in 2019-20.

Ahead of Saturday's thrilling 3-2 win over Blackpool, Mark Robins said the central midfielder had been back in full training and was "more or less pain free," but that he still "possibly needs a bit longer".

But the 24-year-old was on the bench for the victory against the Tangerines, meaning he could yet be in line for a first competitive appearance for his new side when they visit the Pirelli Stadium on Saturday.
